Cheapest place to by play sand?

[Pavlovthecat]

CDS (Range) , Toys R Us, Early Learning Centre, somewhere else?

The Range = Devon store I think.

I got some from Argos for £2.69 - if you lived in Hertfordshire I still have a spare bag unused in the car you could have

look in your local DIY shops.

Tescos ~ £1.57 a bag.
Don't know prices anywhere else.

if you go to tesco at the end of the summer sales the sand is reduced madly-last year it was reduced to 50p for a huge bag!!! it had been £3.99 so we bought loads ready for this year and other years.

Try the garden centres. Not sure if they're much cheaper but saves a trip into town and parking.
As i see you are Devon, try Endsleigh just off the A38, I think that's where we got it.

Thanks for offer fairy, am in Devon tho .

I shall try tescos, that sounds like the cheapest.

Don't forget to leave me a
shopping list

Dragon - do you shop at Tesco's Lee Mill? If so, keep a look out this afternoon!

In our Tescos it is £1.97 a bag.

asda 1.97 too--newton abbot!!!

There is an Asda and two tesco's near us, so DH will go in a bit, Alas, he wont be writing and leaving a shopping list Dragon

with all us devon lot, maybe we should nick it from the beaches?

i nick it from beaches [blushes]

see expat we need to save money somehow!!!!

pity it doesn't burn

tesco

well, erm, it's right across the street.

i already go and take teh driftwood and bring it to the neighbours who are a bit elderly.

and we collect seaglass and pottery that washes up.

my mum and her dh live in spain and this iwnter they went round loads of skips, salvaging chests of drawers etc, to put in the wood burner!!

we found B+Q very cheap

around here, the neighbours come and ask round before the skips arrive if anyone would like to take something to burn before it gets chucked.

if someone hires a skip, you approach them and ask if you go pitch stuff in for a few bob.

we had a fried flymo and the neighbour kindly saved our loading it in our car and driving it to eht community skip, as he had one coming to do some remodelling on his house.

We need it right now, so will go spend a few quid on it.

However, this weekend, when we go to Wembury or such like, I shall remember to take a bin to put some in! Especially as they charge £4.00 for parking!

you can be bothered with the walk we park around the last T-junction before the parking turn-off. might be tricky with children and buckets of sand though.
i will be looking out at lee mill how exciting!

Dragon - at Wembury you mean, for parking? I think I know where you mean. We have a kayak too, so it might be a bit of a pain, but we dont always take it.

Getting NT membership anyway, so wont have to pay for much longer!
